Place cards/Escort cards

I had seen these two escort card pictures on two different blogs and wanted to do something similar for my escort/place cards and holders.


I found these brads online and thought they were perfect with the paper I decided to make the cards out of. I got them on Ebay for half the price since I couldnt find them in a local store. You cant tell but they are super cute with bright pink cherries on a bunch of them.


I found these gifts tags at the Dollar Tree and decided to use them as templates to cut just regular card stock that I printed the guests names on.



I had originally picked a Basic Grey paper, but then wanted to go a little lighter since the favor tags and menus were going to be light, so found this adorable Heidi Grace paper. It was just a coincedence that, the menus, favor labels, and place cards, all had birds on them.


Finish Product... I think they turned out cute!


For the holder I got two memory boards from Micheals when they were on sale for $9, I saw cheaper ones other places, Ross and Marshalls for around $6, but they never had two the same size, so these were fine.


I couldn't find a fabric the exact color I wanted so I went ahead and used the wrapping paper I am using for the cardbox.


Choosing the ribbons and in the order took the longest, but it was fun.


I found two holders/stands at Tuesday Morning for only $6.99 each, I decided later to spray paint them pink.


Here is the final product, escort/place cards and holders. I ended up adding more ribbon than in the picture above.
